Oregon - While Oregon has almost 400 miles of ocean coastline for surfing, sailing and saltwater fishing, it’s not the Pacific that provides the “best place in the world for windsurfing.” It’s the winds whistling through the Columbia River Gorge that offer the perfect windsurfing experience. The historic Timberline Lodge at nearby Mt. Hood features the only year-round snow skiing available in the U.S. Communities near Mt. Hood and the Columbia River Gorge, such as Hood River and The Dalles, have self storage facilities ideal for holding snow skis, kayaks and windsurf boards. While Portland may be a bustling metro area, local outdoor enthusiasts can pull their sporting equipment out of mini storage units to go hiking, mountain biking and fishing in nearby state parks and recreation areas. Residents of Eugene need mini storage units for equipment to camp and hike around the nearby natural wonder known as Crater Lake. Over a hundred self storage facilities are located throughout Oregon.
